There are also burns on the optional rally underpans, one seat (near the edges) and the edges of two ivory plastic rims (not bad, do not interfere with assembly). Instructions are 'very good.' The decals have minor bug damage restricted to the backing paper only and the actual transfers have no damage.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
$58
The B-58 was the world's first supersonic bomber but had a short service life due to the inability of aircraft to survive high-altitude penetration in a SAM environment- incredible fuel consumption may have been a lessor factor as well. This is still the only 1/72 scale Hustler ever made and is an excellent kit. Features recessed panel lines, full cockpits, optional position canopies, "TC" Piggyback Fuel/Weapons Pods, wing mounted nuclear free-fall weapons, detailed wheel wells and excellent molding throughout.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$44
Hardbox release dated 1960. This is the harder-to-find issue because it has desirable 'Famous Fighters' in the logo border. The one without 'Famous Fighters' is much more common.

It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Please note that the box is only ranked 'good' because there is light brown age spotting on the box top; you can see it best against the yellow areas.
